We will empower you to lead, develop deep expertise, and find new approaches to solving the toughest challenges. Position Overview: The U.S. Chamber of Commerce’s Experiential Design Team, an essential part of the Creative and Marketing Department, is committed to designing and executing impactful events and environmental activations. These efforts enhance the Chamber’s convening power across its divisions, the U.S. Chamber Foundation, and internal communications. As key collaborators, the Experiential Team provides design leadership, creative strategy, and innovative concept development to internal teams and partnerships. Our work results in standout events that enrich our brand and amplify our content, crafting memorable experiences for audiences—whether in person, virtually, in D.C., nationwide, or globally. Our projects culminate in compelling graphic identities, experience mapping, brand activations, environmental graphics, captivating stage visuals, broadcast design, digital marketing materials, and supporting print materials.

You will leverage your strong foundation in graphic principles to interpret and amplify our brand identity across various formats and products. Working closely with the experiential design director, you will develop attendee experiences that are highly creative, content promoting, and aligned with event and organizational goals.

Adapt designs across a wide range of event products, including environmental design, programmatic visuals, 3D builds, stage design, digital marketing, promotional merchandise, and print products. Coordinate with teams throughout the organization and with vendors to realize the creative vision, remaining hands-on with assigned events from concept to execution. Oversee on-site installation, manage vendor relationships, attend rehearsals, and maintain files and documentation for projects. Collaborate effectively within a large organization while also functioning independently. Stay on top of industry trends and emerging technologies and pursue training and education relevant to your work. Qualifications: Bachelor’s degree in a related field. 7 years of design experience with 3-5 years in a creative role with significant event design or environmental graphic work and a dynamic portfolio showcasing it.
